Two-Letter Words That Are Capitalized

"Go" is one of several two-letter words that people lowercase by mistake. "Is", "be", "do", "it", "we", and "me" are all capitalized. The two-letter words that stay lowercase are prepositions and conjunctions like "of," "in," "on," "to," and "or."

"Go" in Sentence Case

APA reference lists, many news sites, and most UI text use sentence case instead of title case. There, only the first word and proper nouns get capitals, so "go" is lowercase unless it starts the title: "Where to go next." Pick one of the two styles for a whole set of headings rather than mixing them.
